UPDATED: On the morning of Friday, 11/11/22, the library remains without power due to the effects of Hurricane Nicole. Since Duke Energy does not expect to restore power until late in the day, the building will remain closed throughout 11/11 and will not reopen its doors until Saturday, 11/12, at the normal time of 10 AM. Online services including Ask a Librarian are still available.
Like the rest of the University offices, the Library will be closing its doors early tomorrow, 11/9/22, for staff to get home ahead of the effects of Tropical Storm Nicole. The library will remain closed throughout the day on Thursday, 11/10/22.
A possible reopening on Friday, 11/11/22, is contingent upon the presence of electricity at that time and will be announced at a later date.

Every promoted or tenured faculty member at Stetson is given the opportunity to add a book to the duPont-Ball library’s permanent collection. They can be books that inspired them as undergrads, that informed their teaching style, that got them into their fields in the first place, or that they simply enjoyed a lot in the past year. On this page, you can see all of the faculty honorees, the books they chose, and their explanations for what makes each book meaningful to them. In addition, we have listed all the Faculty who authored books over the past year, with links to their work. Congratulations to the honorees of 2022!
The duPont-Ball Library will be closed from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM on Tuesday 12 July for a staff training event. We will reopen at 4:00 PM.
